What song was #1 on the day you were born
Bit of fun here, have you ever done this?
Some people believe our lives are profoundly influenced by whatever pop song was number one on the day we were born. On the day Heather Mills (the ex Mrs McCartney) was born (12th Jan 1968) it was Hello Goodbye by The Beatles! My number #1's are: 'You're So Vain' by Carly Simon in the US 'Long Haired Lover From Liverpool' by Little Jimmy Osmond in the UK 'Ben' by Michael Jackson in Australia See which songs you get This day in Music |

Re: What song was #1 on the day you were born
It doesn't go back far enough for me - probably Vera Lynn - but then no-one could afford to buy music and nothing to play it on - there was a war on after all

Re: What song was #1 on the day you were born
There were no "charts" when I was born but Glenn Miller had been given the world's first gold disc for sales of "Chatanooga Choochoo" - and I'm still playing it.
 When I got married Elvis was no 1 with "She's Not You", my first child had Dave Clark's "Glad All Over", and my second had Sandie Shaw with "Long Live Love". My younger daughter loves having Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" at no. 1 when she was born.
